Default STANCE coilover owners: Review?

im looking into getting a set of Stance twintube GR+ coils. I want to ride lower than average but i also drive a great deal on bad roads so i want to know how the ride quality is...

ive searched and cameup with nothing on how they ride, any help is appreciated.

1-10? 10 being stock ride quality...for measuring purposes.

from what ive read, you get what you pay for in these. they are great for the their name sake, stance. as for the track handling and comfort for the street, they lack in those areas but make up for it with value and the ability to slam. if you want a product that delivers in all the areas then you might want to look at the hks hypermax iii's or better yet, the kw v3's.

I think stances are great for street use. They are comfortable enough without being too stiff. I think they would do fine on some bad roads, but as with any aftermarket coilover they arent the best for ride quality over unmaintained roads

bu tthen again, hope you like noises since it seems these coils like to make popping noises

^If you get the OEM setup you won't have noises. Every true coilover in the rear will make noises due to the Z's design....

I got the oem stance style coilovers. And im getting a clunking noise from the rear passenger side. Im wondering if they just need to settle in? I just got them installed today. Or I was thinking the piece that holds the oem style spring that adjusts maybe its just the noise of them compressing against the metal? Any suggestions
